I Don't Take Myself As Seriously As

I Grew Up In A Middle Class Household With Parents, Went To Good Schools, And Never Feared For Anything, Never Wanted For Anything That Was Really Important. For All Of Us Living In This World, All Of Us Who Have The Resources, For Us To Not Dedicate Ourselves To Giving Something Back, Is To Leave The World A Lesser Place.

We All Come From Women, And There's Something Extraordinary About The Mothers Who Raised Us.

Something That's Of Common Interest To Every Man, Woman And Child On The Planet Must Surely Be The Notion Of 'peace'. Without 'peace' We Cannot Survive. Valentine's Day Is On The 14 February. Christmas Day Is On The 25 December. Peace Day Has Been Established By The United Nations On The 21 September, And The Whole World Is Invited To Participate.

We Need Money To Scale Up The Services That Bring Medicine To Mothers. The United States Government's Doing That. There's A Global Fund That's Providing Money. Mothers2mothers Provides For Mothers Who Come In Who Don't Have Education, Who Don't Have Support. Mothers2mothers Employs Mothers With Hiv, Mothers Who Were Patients Recently In The Very Same Facilities. We Take Those Mothers Who Were Patients Who've Had Their Babies, We Bring Them Back, We Train Them, We Pay Them, To Be Health Care Professionals.

Charity Is A Fine Thing If It's Meeting A Gap Where Needs Must Be Met And There Are No Other Resources. But In The Long Term We Need To Support People Into Helping Themselves.
